It seems that Harris’s post-nomination bump is starting to fade as we head into the final stretch.
Former President Donald Trump is seeing an increase in support in the polls as the presidential election draws near.
Recent national polls show that the Republican presidential nominee is making a comeback after initially losing ground to Vice President Kamala Harris.
These results show an improvement for Trump since mid-September when he was trailing Harris by five points in the same poll.

Among all 600 voters surveyed, Trump leads Harris 46 to 45 percent. At the state level, the former president holds a one-point advantage in both North Carolina and Pennsylvania, and a substantial five-point lead in Nevada—just outside the four-point margin of error. Harris, on the other hand, holds a slight edge in each of the other four states.
Overall, the latest polls suggest a tightening race as we approach the final three weeks of the election, with Harris’s post-nomination bump diminishing as we head into the final stretch.
Both candidates are intensifying their efforts in swing states this week, with Harris planning stops in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia. Her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, will also visit North Carolina to kick off the state’s early voting period.
Trump will begin the week with events in Pennsylvania and Georgia. His vice presidential pick, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), will follow up with solo stops in Pennsylvania and North Carolina later in the week.
